    Clearly from these stats we can see that the Achilles heel for Chicago may be Green Bay's passing game but to say that GB is better on both sides of the ball? That's a bit of a stretch. With the 20 degree day tomorrow and both teams well accustomed to playing in the cold I expect to see run, run, run. I think the one-two punch of Forte and Taylor get to the Pack tomorrow and I expect to see Olsen involved a lot more as well.
    Total defense is not as important as points allowed, a lot of team allow yardage between the 20's and stiffen when it counts in the red zone. The Packers allowed 15.0 points per game this year, second to the Steelers at 14.5 points without nearly the publicity that the Pitt defense gets.

    Sagarin has Packers by 9 on a neutral field, so line is not skewed in Bears favor like many seem to think.

    WV....

    Uh, Running Back

    Record 11-5,

    Home Field advantage.

    Bears should be minus 3 except for Green Bay's defense and overall strength.

    Should be pick -110/-110.

    Maybe I'll hammer the Packers??

    I'm on the bears. I will take the 3.5 and run with it. I think whoever wins only wins by a field goal. This is a huge rivalry game and past has shown that anyone can win this game.

    i think you can throw all the stats out the window. it is going to come down to special teams and turnovers. both are unpredictable. i think the pack are stupid if they kick to hester. i think cutler may be more apt to throw a pick than rogers. but a tipped pass, a drop here, a james starks first huge game fumble, and who knows what happens. i think the bears better use olsen. he cant get lost in the mix today if they want to move the ball. i also think they need to run matthews from one side of the field to the other with forte. i wouldn't run right up the middle, stretch the field and look for cut back lanes on a bad slippery field. i also dont trust martz. none. i think he could call a hell of a game if his head is on, but you never know if its going to be a circus or not with him. lovie will probably stand around like (my colts coach caldwell) and look confused most of the game. the pack are going to come in with a detailed plan and the bears have to stop it. i honeslty dont know what the bears plan of attack will be? in a game like this, with the weather what it will be, and the field going from bad to worse, a slip here on coverage, or a missed takle, or whatever and this game can go either way.

    This game is still too uncertain. IMO, Bears ML has some nice value and Bears + points is just too juicy to lay off of.

    I'm on the Bears +3.5. I think this game is decided by a fg either way.

    For that extra half point to matter, you'd be pushing. You expect to thank the book for a backdoor push? Not very confident.

    Value bet on Bears. May not win, but Packers are overrated after two strong games. Basically a free 3.5 pts.
